forgot to mention that I am new to this wonderful site. I was seeking information on Fentanyl causing fatigue. I have been reading all day long. I was injured falling off of my roof on may 27, 2009. I broke my back in several places, broke left hip and my pelvis. I have a physical and mental dependence on opiates that I will likely have for the rest of my life. I often want to prove to myself that I am not addicted and will try and take a 'vacation' from the medication. The only med I have never tried this with is the fentanyl. I am on 50 mcg every 48 hrs. After about 2 or 3 months of taking it I developed SEVERE exhaustion.
I desperately want to stop smoking cigs. I think of all the things i have ever done in my life, that addiction is the hardest. I think I will always have to be on some opiate for the rest of my life, but I am determined to stick to taking it as it is written. Failed today, will try again tomorrow.
634 blissful (and sometimes not!) days! Gotta take the good with the bad. A day sober is better than ANY day using!
5 whole days...
Physicals are done but the "mind screw" is starting.
On May 3rd I had 2 years and 4 months.
The last year-and-a-half I've been riding my Harley, enjoying myself, and not counting the days as much - just living. Something I couldn't do when using.
To my MH family, I can't thank you enough. To Acting - a very necessary post. Sometimes we get so involved in living clean (a wonderful thing) that we forget to be grateful as often as we should.
